In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
I feel Huddlestone had far more potential and should never play now for a relegation club. If Hull are going down then clubs like Everton, Southampton or West Ham should look for him
It wasn't easy for young players at the club with many managers (and different ideas) in the last years
Hopefully Pochettino stays for many years and Kane, Dier & Mason are the face of the club
He's already too good for League One so I'm not sure loaning him back there would be a good move.Still very young though.
He looks impressive everytime i see him for Spurs.
Really doing well and looks quite a promising talent.

Agreed. Hes looked really good, especially since he's dropped deeper. Got a bit of everything about him.
Classic Barney
.He's started the season well, probably been Spurs most consistent performer, he's a good sized athlete with good balance and skill as well as some pace, certainly one to keep an eye on.
Was impressed today too, thought he was the best midfielder on the pitch. Has really everything in his locker, his runs from deep impressed me the most.
If he carries on as he has started I could see him making the England squad for the euros
Dier has been Spurs best CM this season.
Apart from the game where he tried to kick us off the park and therefore should have missed a game, true.
He got the deserved MotM award tonight and scored his 2nd league goal this season. He and Dier are doing well as a CM pairing ... all the more so considering one is just 19 and the other only 21.
Both give the team a great balance. The three attacking player behind Kane (Erikson, Dembele, Chadli, Lamela, Njie) are always a bit patchy. They go missing or are wasteful with the ball. Dier and Alli really hold the team together and allow them to perform. Pretty impressive at that age.
Nice to see a young english talent from the lower leagues given a chance tbh. I kinda like how him, Vardy, Smalling are doing in the top flight.
Along with Dier, Alli has been fantastic for Spurs. He's got everything to his game. It's great to see two young English players at the heart of a EPL side that are doing well.
Clever player. Not convinced he'll make that final step up but he could easily be a mainstay of Spurs' midfield for years to come.
Another very good display against Arsenal. Both Arsenal's midfield and that of City's were dominated by the Alli-Dier CM combo. I wouldn't be surprised to see both of them start in one or other of the two upcoming England friendlies.
Alli Dier ye say?
he's 19 ffs, you don't see many more complete players at this age playing in central midfield for top6 side in the premier league.. he's got everything, he will be one of the best b2b midfielders in a few years time..
He seems to have the knack of arriving into the box at the right time, can see him scoring a lot of goals once he is a little more rounded.
Bright future definitely, but still not sure if he has the ability the make the next step.
Very promising first season though. Would have happily had him learning his trade at United.

I hope we give it a go. Our midfield options are not great and it would give them a chance against either Spain or France. Both teams with quality midfielders.
he's the English pogba isn't he? 19years of age, top potential...
His goal looked amazing at first, but it was deflected so I can't give him a lot of credit for it going in really
oh my god, when you see it again you'll find out that was the slightest of deflections, would have ended in the corner anyway
Terrific player
No, it would not have been on target without the deflection.
I do like Alli though. Could be top class.
No
Dirty b*stard though.
It would still have been on target but might have been saved. The deflection only took it higher and out of reach of Lloris.
I wanted us to sign him when he's 17 or so and we were first linked with him.Didn't expect him to come this good this soon though.Signs of things to come for the England youth gen 96' onward.
Only saw his first half, which was pretty par. Is he better than Will Hughes?
Pogba is a level above in terms of potential.
I doubt that. Pogba is 3 years older than Alii, who, in quick succession, has shown that he can stand out against the midfields of City, Arsenal and now France.
I've not really seen Hughes, but Alli is proving himself at a higher level than Hughes is
I think you have mistaken this for the Nick Powell thread sir.
Wat
Dier was also fairly good and that doesnt mean he has the potential of Paul Pogba
How long until he's linked to United? He's had his 5 good games already, surely it's a matter of time?
You're unbelievable.
Fair enough
